Teresa holds a special place in our hearts. Her family is extremely close with Jason's family, sharing holidays together for years. When Teresa became engaged to her sweet Cody and asked us to capture their love story, we were thrilled.

For her bridals, Teresa and her mother had planned everything, her look and the location. Jason and I were given an address and showed up...and our jaws dropped. This house in Seguin, Texas, owned by a friend, was GORGEOUS. The red stucco, the climbing vines, the stonework...with the evening sun we didn't think anything could be more beautiful.

And then Teresa came out in her dress.

The lace detail work and the open back, combined with the vintage feel perfectly accentuated with her birdcage veil, was so classic and simple and PERFECT.

It was a photographer's dream.

After shooting for a while, I remarked how impressed I was that she was able to hold such serious and stoic expressions without breaking. Turns out Teresa's study of karate helped her learn how to keep her game face on. The fierce face is probably intimidating on the mat, but in her bridals, she was able to keep this air of elegance flawlessly.

But with such a gorgeous smile, we had to showcase that too.

Congratulations to you once again, Mrs. Wilson. Thank you for letting us tell your story.
